The Secret of Second Marriage

To be honest, I've never had a formal arranged marriage like this before, and this is my first time going on a blind date with a male guest since my divorce.

I thought for a moment and said, "My name is Jiang Man. I'm a professional celebrity, divorced with a daughter. I can't disclose my income, but I'm currently able to support myself!"

"Ms. Jiang, I think you are very honest, down-to-earth, and kind. The first time I met you at the hospital, you shielded your best friend from injury, and I immediately felt that you were a very special woman!"

Dr. Xiao said.

Kindness isn't a good adjective; it means you'll suffer losses!

In the past, if someone praised me as a kind and virtuous woman, I would have been very happy, but now I feel like they are insulting me...

I chuckled coldly and said, "Dr. Xiao, I think you're quite good too, more honest than most men. So, I'd like to ask you a question."

If I move in with you, will I need help with the mortgage payments?

"If you're willing, that's fine too. If you're not willing to share the mortgage, you can take care of some of the daily expenses."

My mother is a very thrifty and hardworking woman. She loves cleanliness and can keep the house exceptionally well-maintained. She's also a great mother. If we get married, we can simply focus our time on our careers.

Dr. Xiao said.

I did the math.

Dr. Xiao earns a monthly salary of over 13000 yuan. After deducting a 5000 yuan mortgage, taxi fares in the big city, and other expenses such as food and other necessities, she is left with less than 2000 yuan.

This 2000 yuan is simply not enough to raise two children!

Even after we actually get married, I might still have to fill these holes!

I'm not being realistic, I'm just doing the math again. Even if I remarry, I don't want to compromise myself.

I think Dr. Xiao might be interested in my celebrity status and profession; after all, celebrities earn much more than a fixed salary within the system…

I asked Dr. Xiao a direct question: "Dr. Xiao, how many blind dates have you been on? Before me, did you ever consider remarriage? Also, do you truly like me?"

Dr. Xiao avoided all three questions, especially the last one. I looked him in the eyes and asked if he liked me and if he had any feelings for me.

He didn't answer, but instead said that the weather was nice today and that going on a date with me would be romantic.

But I have already gotten the answer I wanted.

Dr. Xiao doesn't like me; he just instinctively feels that I'm a good fit.

I am kind, I am self-reliant, I don't spend men's money, I make a name for myself in the entertainment industry through my own abilities, and I am a virtuous wife and loving mother.

These are all altruistic conditions!

But I am a woman, and I want a man who loves me, cares about me, and truly cherishes me.

Instead of this blatant and cold negotiation on a blind date, I laughed and said, "Dr. Xiao, I'm full. I'll pay for this meal!"

After I finished speaking, I went to the service room, took out 1000 yuan from my wallet, and paid for today's dinner.

After thinking for a moment, Dr. Xiao said to me, "For the first blind date, the man should be the one to treat you to dinner."

"No need, this meal is on me!"

I said, "Dr. Xiao, we can actually be friends."

Dr. Xiao was taken aback: "I thought you would choose me, Jiang Man. You are the one I like. We are a good match."

Do you think I'm not good enough for you?

"No, you are very outstanding. You have a high level of education, a respectable job, and you are a very skilled doctor with a high salary. It's just that I don't feel any connection between us."

I said, "So we can be friends."

Dr. Xiao saw that I had paid, but didn't say anything.

This means that the blind date failed.

After my blind date with Dr. Xiao, I returned to the hotel where the show was being filmed. The other guests also returned one after another after their blind dates and dinners.

Dr. Xiao is indeed a very rational and cold-blooded man.

His attitude towards me was much colder and more perfunctory than before.

Su Mixue dressed up beautifully and deliberately came over to invite Dr. Xiao for a cup of coffee and ask him a few questions about medical metabolism and diet.

Dr. Xiao patiently and gently explained to Ms. Su.

Su Mixue gave me a malicious look, as if to say, "See? The man you just set your sights on was so easily snatched away by me. You must be heartbroken!"

She thought that if she stole Dr. Xiao, I would be heartbroken, which wouldn't be very respectable, so she staged a scene right there and then, like two women fighting over one man—the so-called female rivalry…

But to my surprise, I just calmly sat to the side drinking tea and looking at the scripts on my phone. Most of them were for supporting female roles, and some were for male characters.

I plan to film a dating show after I finish recording the program, so I can save up more money!

Just then, President Jiang called. His first words were, "Man, I told my mom that I will never give up on you, no matter what. Wait for the production team; I'll be there tonight!"
